So, in a discussion on a Lemmy instance¹ someone asked about specialty covers on notebooks instead of reusable notebook covers and why people didn't make the latter anymore. Curious about this (I was never really a user of notebook covers because the ones I saw were always cheap plastic garbage with twee Japanimation covers or the like), I went digging around on Taobao to see if there were more adult variations on this and found … well at first I didn't find many. It turns out I just didn't have the right words. Upon learning the correct vocabulary, I found plenty (a listing attached as an example).

I also ordered one, plus a horribly cheap notebook core, to test them out and see how they solve the notebook size issue. I've got another, larger (350-page!) notebook coming, as well as another cover, so there will be another photo-essay on the topic in the near future.

As usual alt text contains explanations and Mastodon users will have to click in to see all the images.
